Many members indicated that they are not quite sure how to approach making a connection at Metrodate.com. These members indicate that they are not sure what to say, or how much to say. In fact, we have been informed that many of our AOL members try to engage in a "chat-like" tone, asking people if other members want to "chat", without revealing any information about themselves. This is not a very effective approach at Metrodate.com.
It is important to remember the environment you are in at Metrodate.com: everyone is a single adult and looking to make some connections. It is not an AOL chatroom, where people are pretending to be single or just looking to goof around and chat. When you send a message through Metrodate.com, you already have the other members attention by sending a message; however, you need to say something to encourage the other member to write back.
Here is one suggested approach: Without revealing any vital personal information, you should try to give someone a sense of your personality, interests and background. You can ask them to read your profile, but it is better to give some tidbits right there in the message. You should also take one or two things from their profile to indicate that you may have something you both share. Metrodate.com - 100% Free Online Dating Site!
